    So many superhero movies.

    It's what fer dinner... when you go to the movies these days.

    Anyway, I wonder how they're gonna sell this flick in the UK... since they already had The Avengers over there...

    I don't think anyone needs to worry about that, Hollywood tried their version of that "The Avengers" back in 98, and it failed horribly.

    Big man in a suit of armor...take that away, what are you?

    Uhh, genius. Billionaire, playboy, philanthropist.

    Epic. The banging heads of Steve Rodgers and Tony Stark is one of this movie's biggest draws, for me. Captain America and Iron Man seemingly never saw eye to eye, eventually leading to the Civil War. I know Robert Downey Jr. will be up to the snarky task, and after seeing The First Avenger, I know Chris Evans will do great with Cap's undying sense of morality and justice. It should be a great movie.

    Avengers? Pfft. I'd place my faith in someone else to save the world.

    "Dr. Banner, your work is unparalleled- I'm a huge fan of the way you lose control and turn into an enormous green rage monster."

    While the recast is a little awkward, I see it as the James Rhodes recast. Went to a better actor.

    Yep. I never took to Norton's ratty-ass voice despite him starring in some good shit.

    Wow. I totally missed that one. They actually made it into a movie.

    Was that Sean Connery's last performance on film?

    If I had to list something as the worst thing in the world, Avengers would be one of the first things on that list. I avoid it like the plague even though I know nothing about it..

    I don't really understand the fascination with super hero movies... Do people think they can become one or what? I think it's a liberal fantasy.. dominate other people.

    No, that appears to be the League of Extrodinary Gentlemen.

    There is this guy called "Phoenix Jones" who made national/international news recently. Cuz he's some sort of superheroe. You can read about it here:

    http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/...0ijL_blog.html



    And it seems they have a website. Anyone who's been dreaming about prancing around in their underwear in public (or saw "Kick-Ass" too many times) should probably take a peek at it:

    They're comic book and cartoon heroes from my childhood, only now with a bigger budget and on a bigger screen. What's not to understand?

    What a bizarre post.

    Why the fascination with survival horror games? Why the fascination with any form of scripted entertainment for that matter? Same principles.

    Still - you avoid it like the plague yet entered the thread about The Avengers?

    Yes because survival horror and super hero movies have so much in common.. actually I would call them totally the opposite, the average Harry Mason type guy fighting for his survival versus some avenger guy wearing a fancy suit, blowing up entire cities while doing a backflip, eating noodles, being reported in the press and watched by millions of people in a cinema.

    I didn't say they had lots in common did i?

    The point is THEY ARE ALL WORKS OF FICTION.

    Hardly rocket science.

    The point that they're all works of fiction is irrelevant.. its like saying anything is likeable.. not good enough for me but Vector has a point so I'll leave it at that. Goodbye!
